[Q] Software update - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I live in Romania, and I have I8190 (international unlocked non-nfc model) and I have xxamd3 since I got it in July... Problem is, software update (even kies) say I have the latest version, however, the latest version for "Romania" (without any carrier) and Vodafone România (my Carrier) were released in September...
I know I can easily flash with Odin, but why am I getting no update by kies or software update?

Nevermind, I got it carrier-free from eMAG, and it apparently has the COA version (cosmote), which is pretty much the only one who didn't get the amg4 update
My question is, what happens if I flash the Romanian version for no carrier? (this might also fix some connection issues, since I am on Vodafone)

No problem. I am from Spain and I use a rooted ROM from Germany without problem.

Yeah, I researched a bit, and I found that the ROM or the CNX (Vodafone ro) cdc were not in my system (/system/cdc), guess I'll just wait for the update from cosmote, I unrooted my phone for warranty, and I don't want to lose it

[SOLVED] Restricted access changed

The other thread was closed due to use of Spanish I think...
I'm now suffering with this issue.. My city always had a good signal but from last days it started...
Happens every 5min ... Any tip?

Solved. Rooted (JB, finally!), installed Batakang ROM and *#*#4636#*#* (doesn't work at stock JB).. switched to WCDMA only..
Didn't have any disconnection again!
Re: Restricted access changed
Do you upgrade to JB?
Sent from my MB526 using xda premium
Yep but it worked great a few weeks!
is a problem with the quality of the phone network, to me was the same but only in places where the signal was not good, it is a problem of the radio that comes with JB
if we get root.. is it possible to change radio?
Re: Restricted access changed
I think thats a boot loader thing? But if flashing via recovery can then yes.

Even with the locked bootloader?
Re: Restricted access changed
That I highly doubt

I think this is not network fault..
I think that it happens only when the phone gets hot and the 3G is in use.. It won't happen while I'm at wifi
Thanks Dan to root my phone! It is finally working perfectly now
did I miss something, can you all say if it's the phone or network. Have a dual sim Huawei G500 works fine if both slots uses the same network.But once the other network is introduce, problems!!!

Hi, what i did to solve this is installing phone info and with it i can choose the network type. for some reasons when 4g signal isn't good enough it gives that error so i switch to gsm only and i never get that error in my house wich is mainly where it happens.
hope this helps you.

[Q] Connection problem

Hi, I got a One international bought in Germany but I'm using it in Italy with the latest radio.
I don't use my carrier connection so much, but when i use it i notice always some problems..
When I turn on the connection, it initially works but after some minutes it gives some problems because it remains with the H symbol but there is no data transfer so i can't do anything.
It doesn't depends on where i am cause i have the same problem wherever I go.
The only way is to turn on-off airplane mode or reboot the phone, or wait some minutes till the connection decides to get back.
Help me please :crying:

Some users told that Hong Kong firmware give them troubles, they couldn't go back to any other fw. So I suggest you not to use it.
thanks shut_down for replying
but my problem is not with hong kong firmware
my problem is with file transferring on European firmware
not sure but I think in Europe s advance is available with 8gb
but in india only 16gb model available
due to this I'm facing this problem on European firmware

It should work in Europe at least. I think there is not much difference between firmware from different regions / carriers beside the bloatware.
And generally when you flash a firmware, unless you have limited internet connexion to download firmware, you don't risk anything. If there is a network incompatibility you can always flash a new one. And in the worst case ( that can happen ) if your phone don't boot anymore, you can also just try another one

Latest method to unroot?

Does anyone know what's the latest and simplest method to unroot the device so OTA updates can be downloaded? If odining back to stock firmware can be avoided that'd be great. I'm trying to get rid of some annoying issues on my current build. Thanks.

I gave in and flashed the original os. The device runs significantly better. It seems the themes from Samsung slowed down my phone and caused a lot of issues with the dialer app.

Need really bad to unroot restore stock G925AUCU2AOF4, using Odin. My Galaxy Edge has Null for IMEI, servicemode is blank no commands, and no broadband version so no Sim will work. if not posted yet anyone know about when it will be available here as this is most trustworthy site? Also i hear it is not wise, possible to flash with a previous version than my current phone which is G925AUCU2AOF4 - i hope i and others don't have to wait too long.
Thanks,

I take that back. My device started lagging bad, especially when it was in use while connected to the charger.
